High score spam not being sent to the Trash

I tried to lower the number of spam emails I have to process by changing my preference in Apple Mail / Filtering / “Move it to the Trash if the spam score is at least 95”, but it isn’t working.

For example, the latest spam email I received had a score of 99, and the background was blue. A blocklist rule was matched according to the log.

I have the preference in Apple Mail to “Enable junk mail filtering” unchecked. The log indicates that “There is no record of a server junk filter evaluating this message”. I’m using the script “Rescue Good Messages” in Apple Mail. The spam was sent to my Yahoo address.

What am I doing wrong?

If the message was moved to Junk by the Yahoo server spam filter, the rescue script needs to be configured to move the blue messages to the trash.

Thank you. That seems to be working now.
